“The goal of the survey is to understand the experiences of all Town of Wayland community members including those who live, work, worship and/or have children who learn within the Wayland Community,” the Center for Strategic Diversity Leadership and Social Innovation said in a statement. The organization is conducting the survey on behalf of the town.

In addition to the survey, a team from the Center for Strategic Diversity Leadership and Social Innovation will lead “listening sessions” for community members to share their experiences in Wayland. To sign up to take part in one of the “listening sessions”, go to daw.checkboxonline.com/wayland-listening-sessions-registration. Anyone 18 or older who lives, works, learns. or worships in Wayland, or has children in Wayland schools, may participate in one of these listening sessions, each of which will last one hour.
